Hello community, i was wondering if you would be able to help me with my DragonKnight. I am V10 Redguard and i am doing like 1000 damage and was wondering if you could help me out!. I am trying to be dps but for some reason my character will not go over 1000 damage.


Also what do you think about a Orc Nightblade? Thanks

    What skills, what gear, what weapons are you using?

    What does your stats page and champion points look like?

    What passives are you using and what Mundus?

    Folks will help, but you are only going to get out of them what you put into your question. Give us something to work with.

    BAR
    Let's start with your bar. For your two handed you need to be running rally, which is the momentum morph. This will grant you a 20% increase to your weapon damage and should be on always. You also need to put flawless dawn breaker ultimate on your main bar because you get an 8% increase to weapon damage.

    Champion points

    Make sure your points are going into physical damage, which I believe is located in the ritual. Warrior points can go almost anywhere, but thief points should go into cost reduction or regeneration.

    Armor
    5 piece Hundings Rage set(6 trait craft set)
    2-3 piece Ashen Grip set(2 trait craft set)

    You should be running stamina glyph's on all your armor. The more stamina you have means your stamina skills will hit harder.

    Jewelry
    I run Shadow walker set(hard/expensive to get)

    Boon
    The Warrior

    There are some better set ups, but this is the easiest to obtain. With this set up I pull 2,800 weapon damage. Let me know if you have any questions.

    But like others said, hundings/ravager or shadow walker first as the rest is kind of expensive.

    Sets are important.

    Hunding's and Ashen grip combined each gives you tons of raw weapon damage.

    Although with glyphs....a dps who's dead, is no good dps. Decide on glyphs after you got the feel. If your surviability is low, consider using health glyphs.

    Before VR16, I also improved all my gear to green at least. To blue on Vr 14. And yellow at vr 16.

    Warrior is a good choice for mundus as was mentioned.

    I'd put those magicka points into either stam or HP. Your source of damage wont come from magicka based abilities, and you'll still have enough to pull on a damage shield with the reserves you have.

    Momentum and the morphs is a must. Self-heal, weapon buff. Too good to pass.
    Also dont forget, the weapon damage you have on your sheet is what a light attack of yours do. Most of your damage comes from the abilities you use. The more stamina you have the stronger they get.

    I'd put in more damage skills onto my bar. Wrecking blow, critical rush, unstable flame (which is a very strong stam morph of the searing strike).

    Dual wield & Two hander seems a bit of an overkill, overlapping too much. I'd pick either ranged or sword & board survival for my second bar, depending on the situation.

    Willows path set with infused / divine, agility jewelry with weapon damage enchants, and dreugh King or shadow walker. This will give you recovery and weapon damage to actually sustain fights. 2H for crit charge to close the gap in 1v1 and DW for steel tornado during 1vX or to uncloak NB's. Use Warrior mundus stone in PvP to get more weapon damage and Thief stone in PvE for crit.

    I saw many full-stam DPS-es spending more time on the ground waiting for rez than actually doing their job.
    If you are skillful, able to get out of the red, block when needed, buff and survive on your own without constant healer support then go all stam.

    Brawler from two-handed for instance gives a very nice damage shield, the more enemies you hit, the better. Weaving in brawler in between attacks, using the heal of rally, would make your life easier, and you might not need a large health pool.

    But consider - most in PvE you will be doing fine, 1-2 hitting most mobs.

    But a DPS who's running away or dead, is no dps, no matter how much life he has.
